Monaco & Monte Carlo

Enjoy the fashionable resorts of Monaco and Monte Carlo with a picturesque harbour and glamorous yachts, beautiful Royal Palace and famous Casino Square. During our free time in glittering Monaco sit back, relax and enjoy the bustling atmosphere of this spectacular Riviera resort. Monte Carlo is situated on a prominent escarpment at the base of the Maritime Alps along the French Riviera. Near the western end of the quarter is the world-famous Place du Casino, the gambling centre. The eastern part of the quarter includes the community of Larvotto with Monaco’s only public beach.

Monte Carlo

World famous as a place of glitz and glamour, Monte Carlo attracts the rich and famous, and the super rich (!) due to its favourable tax laws and fabulous position on the sophisticated Mediterranean coast, in easy reach of Cannes, Nice and St. Tropez.

Residents include the likes of Bono, Lewis Hamilton and Roger Moore as well as the ruling Grimaldi family who live in the Palace of Monaco high above Monte Carlo marina.

Monaco Grand Prix

What really puts Monte Carlo on the map is the Monaco Grand Prix, the most famous race in the Formula 1 calendar. The streets are taken over for the weekend, with spectators packed on every available corner and in the grandstand to see this unique event. One of the most famous spots on the circuit is the Monte Carlo Casino, which epitomises this luxurious and affluent principality, and visitors can go inside the Casino and chance their luck at Roulette or Black Jack.

Imperia

Nestled in Italy’s stunning Ligurian Riviera, the charming coastal city of Imperia is famed for its cultivation of both flowers and olives.

A wander around the winding cobblestone streets is the ideal way to explore this compact city, with beautiful architecture, ancient buildings and views of the glittering, blue bay at every turn. Afterwards, park yourself down in a lovely, shady spot with a scoop or two of gelato, and gaze out across the city’s sunset-orange buildings.
